Default Attachments (opening in new window?)

hey,
ive noticed that when you open an attachment in a post, it opens in the same window.

this annoys me

because im used to opening an attachment or image in a new window, and then closing it once ive looked at it etc. so i find myself closing the forums and losing the thread i was in.

is it possible to make them open in a new window? (ive seen it on other forums)

im not sure if this is an easy fix or has been raised before, and i know its only minor, but i thought i would put it out there to see what others think...

cheers
pete

Probably a fair call, I've done the same thing myself a few times.

I'll check it out, if it's not a ridiculously awkward edit (Vb has a nasty habit of being awkward where you least expect it), I'll discuss it with the guys.

I just hightlight the thread, right click and tell it to open in a new tab (Explorer 7) or window )(previous versions).

Right-click and open in new tab if you are using Firefox or IE7. Previous version of IE right-click and open in new window......
